3804073 Engine Core | Genuine Volvo Penta Part

🔧 Product Description

Core deposit for an exchange engine, listed under the Engine group at 1202.014 kg. It carries the refundable charge on the worn engine returned at the end of the exchange rather than supplying anything itself. Under Volvo Penta's core numbering it pairs with part 3801073. It is the lightest of a close trio with core 3804072 at 1246 kg and core 3804071 at 1261 kg, and the spread is too small to identify the right line by mass, so order against the exchange engine number.

⚙️ Key Features

• Refundable core deposit, not a fitted part
• Pairs with part 3801073
• 1202.014 kg
• Close in weight to cores 3804071 and 3804072, so order by number

🔌 Function

Carries the refundable core charge on an exchange engine; the engine it covers is the vessel's prime mover, turning fuel into shaft power.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• This is a deposit line and has nothing to fail in itself; the signs below are what normally condemns the engine being exchanged
• Persistent smoke and a rising appetite for oil
• Oil pressure warning at hot idle, with a knock under load
• Coolant loss with no visible leak, or emulsion in the rocker cover
• Heavy breather blow-by and low compression on more than one cylinder

🛠️ Service Notes

• The deposit is refunded when the old engine is returned; ordering this line on its own supplies no part
• Return the engine complete and drained, with its ancillaries as they came off, since a stripped or incomplete core can reduce or void the refund
• Plan the return around 1202.014 kg, with rated lifting gear and a pallet at both ends

📦 Condition

• Refundable core deposit - not a physical part
